Y'all know I'm the palest thing ever to walk the earth (ok, albinos beat me, but just marginally). I need the protection! And, although I have the smallest head circumference in the land, there were a couple that actually fit when I tried them on.*
Which is how I ended up with this one:
I realize that, one day, I'm going to look at these photos and think to myself: Wow, I looked great without make up 5 minutes before I turned 40. But right now all I can think is: Would it have killed me to put on a little foundation? Or at least to have applied my lipstick evenly??
*Note that I will glue some grosgrain to the inner brim, just to give it a bit more stability on my mini skull. Doesn't that make me sound so DIY?

Glam!
ReplyDeleteYou look great and have fabulous skin. Cherish it! ^_^
ReplyDeleteYou look way better than me w/o makeup an I'm 35... That hat is fab!
ReplyDeleteYou look very glam and have beautiful skin.
ReplyDeletei tried on a couple of hats today too, but no luck -- I have the biggest head -- a men's large.
You look fab!! I could see this w/ a vintage Claire McCardell bathing suit. I think I have you beat in the tiny head circumference race!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous hat. And I'll reiterate what everyone else is telling you - your skin is great!
ReplyDeletei love it! and i am as pale as you and i was recently thinking that i need one of these hats!
ReplyDeletetoday i went without makeup (and didn't dare leave the house!). sometimes i think i look ok without it, and sometimes i think WHO AM I KIDDING -- GET ME SOME MAKEUP, STAT! ha! oh well.
i think you look fab, so there!
You look SO Riviera! Very chic! What is up with hats so rarely coming in sizes: I am a Big Head person personally... yes, i know fancy hats come in many sizes, but regular cool hats...not so much.
ReplyDeleteThat hat rocks! You look so awesome!
Oh lordy I love it! Now I'm going to have to go on a hunt to find one for myself!
ReplyDeleteI love the hat -you look so chic. I think people should wear hats more often. And you don't need foundation!

Wendy: Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAndrea: You are so sweet.
Jennine: You are gorgeous at any age...
Mardel: Thank you! With all the women needing bigger or smaller hats, I'm surprised by the lack of range. I guess, not enough people wear them to make it economically feasible to size better. I did the grograin insert yesterday and now the thing fits perfectly. Alas, it doesn't work in the other direction.
Stacy: I know! It's got glamour bathing suit accessory written all over it. And you cannot beat me with the tiny head :-)
Tiffany: Thank you!
Janelle: I like to call my weekend look "homeless chic". Sometimes, with the greasy hair and "lounge" clothes, I am scary!
Margaret: Thank you! If you live in a big city, you can often find specialty shops for the "everyday" hats. I intend to wear this fancy one everyday nonetheless!
attempts: You must!
Marina: Thank you. I do love to see women in hats.
Janet: Thank you!
Fab: Don't you find the glamour hat is perfect for the forty-something woman?? I'm loving that!
Kate: Fun, huh!
Shallow: So nice to see you... And thank you!
Seeker: And nice to see you too. I hope you are well. Thanks!
